Chapter 958 Assassination (Repair)

The license plate is carved from wood and has a unique "steel seal" on it. The pig iron letterpress, stamped on the cork, is a complete seal. This thing is available in the world only by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It is not afraid of others imitating it. Even if it is imitated, there are still hidden signs on the seal. Ordinary people can't see anything, and a discerning person can tell the truth at a glance.

The license plate and the "Guanwei" are used together. The license plate is used to allocate, while the license plate is used to make a "temporary ID card". Otherwise, so many Turkic people would cause panic in the local area if they traveled south.

"Money..." Fan Debiao murmured in a low voice, and was immediately scolded by Manager Ma: "There is only money in his eyes. It's a shame that you have served Master Bai! When you get there, you will naturally give money. Why are you afraid that the Marquis will be able to lose money?"

"How dare you, how dare you--" Fan Debiao retreated timidly, and glanced at Manager Ma before leaving. He did count the books on Manager Ma, so he felt relieved.

When they returned to the shed where Tongluo and others were, there were indeed many merchants like Fan Debiao who came to lobby Tongluo and others to register with them. Some even took out wine and meat on the spot, saying that as long as they followed, the wine and meat would be given.

Fortunately, Tong Luo was here, Tong Luo told them that there were no good things for no reason. If these people didn't know each other, they could give them wine and meat for nothing? If they had eaten their wine and meat, what might happen? Uncle Fan was good to everyone along the way, and he should be grateful for his kindness... In short, after saying a lot, he finally successfully delayed Fan Debiao's return.

Fan Debiao was also very moved when he saw this. He also had wine and meat, and had prepared a long time ago. He had expected this, so he made preparations. Even if there was no such thing, he would invite these people to have a meal of wine and meat, not for anything else, just to wait for the matter to be exposed, and not to be stabbed by others in the backbone.

Although you may never meet in your life, it would be better to be less talked about and less talked about. After all, Fan Debiao also has a son, so why should he consider his descendants?

After eating a meal of wine and meat, Fan Debiao also confessed to everyone that he had taken commissions from it. You said that people were short-speaking, and everyone was taken care of by Fan Debiao all the way, and they had just eaten wine and meat that they had never eaten in their lifetime. Who would have the nerve to say what? Some people are sensible, and they are even more grateful to Fan Debiao for bringing everyone out of the sea of ​​suffering.

Everyone has to rest here for a night, and tomorrow they will follow the farm's head to go south according to different numbers, and Fan Debiao's duties will end here.

The next day, just as dawn was dawn, the shed next door was busy. Manager Ma personally took the registration book to check it. Doing this is to prevent people like Fan Debiao from lying. If there were thirty laborers in the report, only twenty of them could work, and Manager Ma would have to eat.

After checking one shed at a time, we finally arrived at Fan Debiao's shed. The people led by Manager Ma looked at everyone one by one, which was basically the same as the one reported by Fan Debiao. He drew a circle on the page of Fan Debiao on the booklet, which means that the inspection was passed. When these people arrived in Jiangnan, Fan Debiao could get a silver note that could be exchanged in the bank at any time.

"You can speak Chinese?" When he came to Tong Luo, Manager Ma glanced at him and asked.

"I can talk, I learned from Uncle Fan!"

"Yohe, the word is still a straightforward," Manager Ma smiled, and added a line of small words to the name of Tong Luo, which stated that he could speak Chinese. Tong Luo quickly took out something from his arms, handed it to Manager Ma, and said flatteringly: "The manager is very kind and kind, and the villain is unforgettable. This is a stone that the villain picked up. It is kept when it looks good. It is not worth much money. If the manager likes it, please accept it with a smile."

"What's the use of the stone I'm going to come - huh?" Manager Ma was about to push it away when he suddenly saw that the stone seemed unusual. It was not an ordinary stone, but a piece of jade blank. If you can become a manager, you must have eyesight. Judging from the size of the stone, it would be no problem to open a jade pendant.

A good jade pendant is worth more than ten cents of money. In terms of quality, if sold in the East Market of Chang'an, it will be worth at least twenty cents of money.

This is not a small matter. Manager Ma looked at Tong Luo and wanted to determine what his purpose was. To be honest, he really didn't want to take the opportunity to get some benefits. What he is doing now is in charge of business and has long been short of money. Moreover, how much can these poor Turks give him? For this reason, it is really not worth losing his position in charge of business. At his level, he has been able to get in touch with some core things. He has heard of bad people and secret spies from Dongchang. Anyone around him may be from bad people, and what he does may not be passed on to the top.

But everyone has their own preferences. Manager Ma’s hobby is jade. He not only plays and bets on stones by himself, but also does this business. Tongluo’s raw stone has a very good quality. With his experience, he will definitely be able to produce a good jade pendant. It’s not just a matter of money. If he can ask the best carving worker, make a fine piece of fine work, and give it to Master Bai, if he gets Bai’s happiness, can he go to another level in the future?

"Um..." Manager Ma hesitated for a while and said, "I am responsible for the manager, and it is not convenient to take your things. But I really like your stone - this is how much you want to sell, I bought it. You can take the money with it, but you are a little troublesome."

"How dare you ask for money to manage the business, or give it to the manager,"

"If you say this, then I can't ask for it." Manager Ma was also neat. When he heard this, he would return the stone to Tongluo. Tongluo insisted on sending it, but Manager Ma insisted on not wanting it. Even Fan Debiao said peace, it didn't work.

Seeing that Ma was firm in charge of the matter, Tong Luo just offered a price. He didn't dare to ask for it anymore, so he asked for a good cowhide. The Turks did not receive jade, so he didn't know the price of this thing. He just saw Fan Debiao had a jade pendant and thought that this thing would be worth a little money and planned to give Ma a gift to Ma a good word, but he didn't expect that Ma would not want it.

In the end, Manager Ma paid eight guan and bought Tongluo's jade. Even Fan Debiao couldn't say that it was unfair. For a jade pendant of this texture, it would cost ten guan to buy a guan in the east market, eight guan in the original stone, and carvings? The price is already very reasonable.

"You guys are lucky. Eight guan is enough for you to gain a foothold in Jiangnan."

When they asked Fan Debiao how much the 8-guan was. After understanding, they immediately took out half of it and asked Fan Debiao to buy some food for him. On the next road, they could not meet an acquaintance like Fan Debiao, so they prepared some food by themselves and felt at ease when they set off.

Even if they thought about it, they would not have thought that Yangzhou City was already under the pressure of black clouds at this time.

...

The city of Yangzhou has been martial law.

The city gates and ports were all banned. Eunuch Gao transferred the defenders of six nearby Zhechong Prefectures and surrounded Yangzhou! In the north, Hou Junji, who received a letter from Fei Ge, drove to Yangzhou with 10,000 imperial guards overnight. There was only one reason for the hard work of the troops - the emperor was assassinated!

The matter has to start three days ago.

Three days ago, Li Shimin followed Li Mu and finally returned to Yangzhou Port. Seeing that the end of the year was approaching and he could finally take a break, Li Mu took leave to Li Shimin, intending to take advantage of these days to spend time with his family.

Li Shimin also wanted to joke about the new things he saw during the trip these days, and he was tired after the past few days, so he did not cause any trouble for Li Mu and returned to his place to stay.

The two hundred guards brought by Li Shimin are basically here. This time, the only one who followed Li Shimin to Jiangnan was Li You's biological mother Yin Fei. Li Shimin originally did not intend to bring his wife's family, but he could not bear the Yin Fei's requests day and night. Li Shimin also felt guilty about the demotion of Li You, so he agreed to Yin Fei and brought him with him. Yin Fei was a lady from a wealthy family and was not touched by her fingers. There must be two people around her. Without servants, she was afraid that she would even make things difficult for herself.

Li Shimin doesn't like Yin Fei, but this is also a common thing. Li Shimin has never expressed any dissatisfaction because of this. He has too many women. If he only pays attention to his shortcomings, he will still live. Every woman has something he likes, which is enough.

The advantage of Yin Fei is that she has written good characters. Although she is proficient in both piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Yin Fei is not inferior to everyone in this character. What is even more rare is that she can write all kinds of fonts, unlike Li Shimin who is only good at flying white.

The Yin Concubine can be named the concubine as the daughter of a guilty minister, and this calligraphy will definitely add a lot of points.

After dinner, Li Shimin took out a copy of Wang Xianzhi's copybook that he had plundered from Li Mu and asked Yin Concubine to appreciate it. When the emperor and the imperial concubine were in love with each other, idle people naturally had to avoid it, even Eunuch Gao was no exception.

Gao Gong brought a pot of tea in and quietly retreated. He waved his hand and let the secret sentry retreat away. He jumped onto the top of the corridor and observed the surroundings vigilantly.

A piece of beef jerky was found in his arms, and Eunuch Gao put it in his mouth and chewed it gently. Those who serve others often don’t have enough food to eat. Eunuch Gao often has dry food on his body. In the past, he had no money, and dry food was just cakes, buns, etc., but now he has money, but he can’t spend it anymore. There are too many "filial sons and virtuous grandsons". What he likes has been prepared by someone and can’t finish it at all.

Eunuch Gao was idle and was prone to random thoughts. At this moment, he was summarizing the gains and losses of this period. A few months ago, when Li You was demoted to a commoner, Eunuch Gao thought that Yin Fei must have been neglected because of this. Even if he was not inscribed in the cold palace, it would be difficult to see Li Shimin in the second half of his life.

But who would have thought that Yin Fei not only did not fall out of favor because of this, but Li Shimin often went to Yin Fei because of guilt. There was a tendency to be another one, and Yin Fei's favor remained even worse than before. This time, when he came to Jiangnan, he didn't bring any concubine, but only Yin Fei, which shows that.

There was also the rebellious Li You. Who knew how he got the clue. It seemed like he had changed someone else. When His Majesty mentioned him on weekdays, he could not help but smile at the corner of his mouth. If he hadn't committed a serious crime like rebellion before and committed a serious crime like rebellion, Li You now would definitely be the most favored one among the concubine princes.

"Human life is destined to be--" Eunuch Gao muttered, and was about to find some wine to warm his stomach when suddenly a sound of breaking through the air sounded. Eunuch Gao hid sideways, reached out to grab an arrow.

"Who!" Eunuch Gao shouted softly, threw the arrow back with his backhand, and a muffled groan was immediately made between the shadows of the trees, and then the leaves scattered. Eunuch Gao jumped to chase after him. When passing by the door, he shouted to the guard on duty: "There is an assassin, protect Your Majesty!"

Then he chased the shadows all the way west.

There were two guards guarding the gate.

If you can guard the emperor's gate, you are definitely not an ordinary person. You must be a noble person. Ordinary soldiers are only worthy of patrolling the periphery. Being able to guard the emperor's gate is more like a glory in comparison.

One of the two people who were on duty today was the Ashina who surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. Of course, for the sake of the emperor's safety, the two generals guarding the gate could not be all Turkic. There was also a Guanzhong child who was born in the Changsun family and named Changsun Yi. He was considered to be peer with Changsun Chong and was a nephew of Changsun Wuji.

Hearing Eunuch Gao's urge to protect him, Changsun Yi immediately called for someone. Just as he opened his mouth and had not closed it, he suddenly stretched out a hand from the back of his neck, and a scimitar quickly passed by his neck, and then blood gushed out.

Ashina Society held Changsun Yi who was about to fall, pulled him to the corner, and then opened the gate of the yard. The man in black who was hiding in the nearby streets and alleys quietly entered the yard under the leadership of more than twenty people wearing the same imperial guard costumes as Ashina Society.

Everyone held a scimitar in their hands.

Asina's association rate lowered her voice and made the final mobilization: "The heaven of immortality is above, please bless us Turks!"

After saying this, everyone hit the left chest with a right punch, and everyone's eyes were full of determination.

"Roar in and kill the Emperor of Tang!"

Everyone pursed their lips and rushed into the courtyard. At this time, Dugu Jiu, who was experiencing the light skills of Eunuch Gao, just arrived and saw dozens of men in black breaking into Li Shimin's courtyard. Dugu Jiu took out Li Mu's special "signal fireworks" from his arms without hesitation. As long as it was not raining, the special fireworks could fly dozens of meters in the sky and be seen within a radius of ten miles.

A firework exploded in the sky, and the entire Yangzhou city could be seen. Li Shimin, who was thinking about writing, naturally heard it. He looked up and saw that there was a shadow outside. He thought to himself that something was wrong. He hurriedly blew out the candle, grabbed a sword in his hand, and at the same time blocked Yin Fei's entire person behind him.

Although Yin Fei was a mentally retarded woman, she was particularly calm at this time. She retreated from history and signaled him to escape through the back window. However, Li Shimin was unwilling to do so. He was the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, how could he escape in panic? Even if he was not the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, as a man who stood up, how could he leave his woman and live alone?

Seeing that the Turks were about to break in, Dugu Jiu had no time to wait for his help, and pulled out the nameless sword on his back and landed straight like a meteor.

"Sword-swinging style!"

Dugu Jiu broke ten swords with one sword and blocked all attacks.
